B-tree animation source codes

Introduction

Please have in mind that I did not create
the applet as a free software.
Sending the source codes to anybody who asked
is not my duty.

I do not provide the source codes for download
to everybody. But if you explain
exactly why you need them, you might be lucky and
finally get them.

Explaining why

I receive quite a lot of email telling something like:

“I need the source codes.”

“Please help. Send me the source codes.”

“Hi man! I'd seen your applet and I'd like
to see the source code!”

But it is not enough for me. To be able to understand
your needs and to distinguish the type of help you need,
it is necessary to describe your matters more in detail.

You probably have some task assignment to work with
B-tree data structures. Tell me more about it.
Who ordered you to do it? What will your work be like?

Why do you need my source codes?
What do you want to understand? What do you plan to do with it?
Just read it? Include it in your project? Just give out
to someone else?

What will be the fruits of your work like?
What is the intended purpose?
Would it be freely available as my B-tree animation is?
Would it be working software for your company?
Is it just a search for some data storage implementation?
Or do you plan to include it in your comercial software?

Send me an email explaining the above questions.
Then I will consider giving the source codes.

My conditions

And if you would finally get the source codes,
remember that I make some rules:

All the source code is property of
Petr Sladek (also known as slady).
You are not permitted to distribute anything from it.

You are not allowed to make any changes to the software.

You must delete all copies of the program
after your project is finished.

Make "acknowledgment" or "thanks" section
in your work where slady will be praised.

If you liked it, tell everybody about it.
If you have troubles,
tell me about it.

Send me an email whenever possible
(e.g. you encounter difficulties, or you are done).

In short: The software is my property. The permission
to read it is only for you. Not for anyone else. Do not send
it to anybody. Delete it after your work is done.

How to start

Have you read everything above?

If you agree with all the rules and you
still feel you can get the source codes,
write me an email.

I must admit that there is no problem for me to give out
the source codes. Usually I ask some questions before I send them.
And after those questions are answered, I consider the sending again.
